Better than finding him on your place dead from a neighbor's arrow wound.  He lived and ended his life his way and you still get to appreciate him. 
...and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Gen. 1:28

At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH

Similar experience this past year. Found my target buck from 2018-2021 dead this past fall. Based off the antlers he died just after shedding in September of 2021. Was in perfect body condition so assuming old age. Not sure if the shedding period is a risk period for bucks or not when it comes to disease

Pretty neat that you were able to find him. Like most I’m sure we have several that have disappeared over the years, would love to know what happened to them.
